▓ [ about this release ] ▓
░ ░
Using the post-modern torch music of Portishead as a
foundation, Lamb spins out into new sonic territories
on its eponymous debut album. The group sports a
heavier techno influence, incorporating the buzzing
rhythms of drum'n'bass into their music in particular,
yet they cut their modernistic electronic influences
with a dark sense of melodicism. Most of the album is
devoted to jazzy songs that are broken apart by Andrew
Barlow's synthesizers and sampler, and are anchored by
Louise Rhodes' seductive vocals, which prevent the
electronics from becoming cold. It's sophisticated
urban music, one that's miles away from the
avant-garde sensibilities of Tricky and the haunted
romanticism of Portishead, or even the pop leanings of
Sneaker Pimps and the soul-inflected grooves of
Morcheeba. Instead, Lamb is classy, detached and cool
ù a more club-oriented and less melodic variation of
Everything But the Girl's Walking Wounded. Although
Lamb may run a little long, it's one of the more
hypnotic by-products of trip-hop yet released.

▓ [ about us ] ▓
▒ iRO is an internal release group, which means we ▒
░ release outside of the regular mp3 scene. We do this ░
purely for the public, so you can hear that hard-to-
░ find album, that release you could never find the ░
scene rip of, and the actual retails of albums at
proper quality standards so you can decide whether
you really want to buy them or not; all without
asking for anything in return.
Also, unlike our predecessors, iRO gives back first
to the people who do all the work, the rippers. With
this thought at heart, all members have an equal say
in all group decisions and are welcome in all group
channels. Equality, quality and democracy, values
all good groups should share.
With the introduction of the year 2004, comes change.
As of 01/01/2004, iRO will now be encoding in the APS
standard (VBR). Our past two years of work, all done
in the CBR standard, will remain in tact.
We are currently looking for fast ftps to serve as
pubs and member sites, as well as xdcc shell
providers. If you can help out by providing one of
these to this noble cause please come visit us in
